they know that the $7000 price was very a bad move by all the feedback

the best plan for them may be to drop the SD1 and start over.

they could then regroup and the SD1 be forgotten.

then now that things have improved supply wise in Japan after the quake- they then introduce a camera the SD16 with some of the technological inovations of the sd1 but
with a less extensive body , better iso , and better focus.

price it at $1900 , get some rave reviews for the wonderful sigma colors and you are
back in business.

because so few SD1 have been sold, support for the SD1 will be under control.
